Ordering Vegan at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
Hello, fellow coffee lovers! If you happen to be on your way to The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, you’re in luck, because all the following options are vegan. For a drink, you’ll want to avoid any cow’s milk or honey, as these ingredients are stolen from the animals who produce them. Cows make milk to feed their babies, while bees make honey to sustain their hives throughout the winter. Whether you prefer your drink made with oat, soy, almond, or coconut milk, you’ll be sure to find something you’ll love at this coffee chain. Enjoy!
Espresso Drinks
Whatever drink you choose, be sure to ask for your preferred vegan milk option. The Coffee Bean has four: Oatly! Barista Edition Oatmilk, Califia Farms Almondmilk, Pacific Foods Coconut Plant-Based Beverage, and Silk Soymilk.
- Americano (hot or iced)
- Cappuccino (hot or iced)
- Espresso
- Flat White (Add vanilla bean sauce for a flavored option.)
- Latte (Hot or iced—ask for vanilla bean sauce instead of powder.)
- Macchiato

Brewed Coffee Drinks
Again, start by choosing your favorite vegan milk. If you want to add flavoring, be sure to ask for vanilla bean sauce, as the vanilla powder contains dairy.
